What is at stake?
With one match remaining for five of the six Atlantic East teams, each continues to battle for seeding in the upcoming conference tournament. A victory and some help could vault the Cavaliers to the number one seed, while loss could drop them to number four.

Likewise for Immaculata, Wednesday's result has important implications, as the Mighty Macs could finish anywhere between second and fifth.

Last Meeting: Cabrini 1, Immaculata 0 (10/18/2017, Radnor, PA)
Senior Jared Irwin's 62nd minute penalty kick proved to be the difference, as the Blue and White scored a 1-0 victory over the Mighty Macs in last season's meeting.

Senior Sal Zampirri Jr. joined sophomores John Griffin and Josh Cunningham with three shots each, as the Blue and White outshot the Mighty Macs 18-5 on the day. Junior Mike Gould notched two saves to secure his fourth shutout of the season.

Five Mighty Macs accounted for the team's five shots, while sophomore goaltender Mikey Kalopkas posted eight saves in the loss.

Cabrini outshot Gwynedd Mercy 27-3, including 11-0 in shots on goal, and recorded each of the day's six corner kicks.

Immaculata Last Time Out: Neumann 3, Immaculata 2 (2OT) (10/20/2018, Immaculata, PA)
Less than one minute from securing a tie, Neumann scored the game-winner on a deflection from a Kalpokas save.

Senior Mark Staudenmayer put the Mighty Macs on the board in the 32nd minute, but Neumann evened the score six minutes later. The Mighty Macs grabbed another lead in the 67th minute on freshman Omar Ba's goal, but again the Knights evened the score in the 86th frame.
